The incredibly cool folks at My Geeklings–an awesome site that explores creative parenting, with an emphasis on innovative family games–listed Wild Wars flagship game, Family Battle, in their new Holiday Guide!

Are you a Wild Wars player that wants to help us refine the rules for our upcoming Family Battle game? While the final game includes special animals from all five kingdoms with universal food costs and be available at Christmas, here’s how you make a basic prototype test deck: Take any two (or more) beginner decks, remove all objects, and then combine the remaining cards into one deck at a 3:2 ratio of animals to food. (With two decks, you’ll probably end up with a 60 card deck, which is enough for two players.

Each player gets 8 cards and gameplay rules are the same as regular wild wars with the following exceptions: 1) Play all animals as though they had universal food costs. 2) Although everyone has a personal boneyard, deal the cards from a communal deck. 3) Everyone draws a card, even the first player. 4) Suck creatures aren’t in the official WW:FB game, so give suck animals “rush” for testing purposes. 5) The goal is to gain points with the first person to 10 points winning. Points are gained as follows: 1) unblocked attacks gain the attacker the number of attack points their creature had 2) overpower attacks gain the attacker the number of attack points over what a defender’s defense was 3) blocks earn the defending player one...

After an extremely exciting third and final match up between novelist Leah Pugh and website designer Daniel Hildreth at this weekend’s 1st Annual ‘King of the Wild tournament’ at Louisville’s Imaginarium Convention, Hildreth emerged victorious after top-decking a Threatened Great White Shark to Overpower his opponent!

Wild Wars will be teaming up with Lousville’s Imaginarium Convention at the Crowne Plaza Hotel for their first annual King of the Wild tournament on September 13th! The Imaginarium Convention has been a regional creative landmark for the last few years in Louisville, with a focus on all things imaginative: from books, to films, to games. Although Imaginarium has become a major focus for novels and novelists, with guests like Kevin J. Anderson (Star Wars: Dark Apprentice), Lori Wild (Twilight, Texas), and C.S. Marks (Elfhunter trilogy), its film festival and gaming areas have also been growing. This will be one of the first TCG (Trading Card Game) tournaments hosted at the festival.

The first Wild Wars Tournament has been officially announced at Louisville’s Imaginarium Convention held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel! Two Demonstrations and Tutorial classes will be held on the game on September 12th and a Constructed tournament will occur on September 13th. More specifics will be coming out shortly about this...
